Pilanesberg National Park is the fourth largest wildlife reserve in South Africa.

It is located in a crater in the North West Province's Bojanala Region. This crater was formed by the eruption of a volcano millions of years ago. This extinct volcano has grown into one of the most intriguing environments for you to explore. The majority of South Africa's wildlife is currently found in the Pilanesberg game reserve, thanks to the Genesis project.

The park has a total area of 55 000 hectares. More than 7000 animals live freely and uninhibitedly here. Pilanesberg is home to all five of the Big Five (elephant, rhino, leopard, buffalo, and lion), and we promise that you will be able to see the majority of them.
